The Brooklyn Nets signed guard Keith Bogans on Thursday. Per team policy, terms of the deal were not released.  Bogans played in five games with the Nets last season before suffering a season-ending ankle injury on February 8 against Detroit. He later had surgery to repair the torn deltoid ligament and is expected to be ready for training camp.  A nine-year veteran who was taken 43rd overall by the Milwaukee Bucks in the 2003 NBA Draft, he has averaged 6.7 points and 2.9 rebounds over 591 games.  He has also played with Orlando, Charlotte, Houston, Milwaukee, San Antonio and Chicago in his career.
